Alex Fraser

east teas is a London-based company that has been dedicated to specialising in importing and distributing specialist, fine-quality loose-leaf teas and tea utensils from east Asia for fifteen years.

Alex Fraser has been a consumer of east Asian teas for over fifty years. His more than twenty five year involvement with the Japanese Way of Tea (a.k.a.Japanese Tea Ceremony) brought him a scholarship to study it full-time in Kyoto for three years. He has taught this, when time and space allow, and given presentations at the British Museum, in museums, galleries, festivals and educational establishments throughout the UK and in South Africa and Sweden. He sold tea and utensils at London's Borough Market and is an Associate Lecturer at the University of the Arts London, involved in Ceramic Design, which links strongly with his involvement with tea culture.
